Just seeing this brings a flood of emotions. Teri Keane and Mandel Kramer are probably my favorite all time soap opera characters. Mandel is great. He was even greater as Bill Marceau. the Edge of Night went down when Martha left the show. In comparison, The Guiding Light went down when Rita Stapleton let the show.
Mandel ---- I SALUTE YOU. RIP.

If this is 1953, then Guiding Light had only been on TV less than a year.Didn't they use Duz to wash dishes also? But I also know they would leave the TV studio and go to the radio station to do the episode again for the radio version.I think they continued this until 1956. The radio version.My Grandma used to listen to Guiding Light. I guess she watched it too.I guess these people are either dead or very old now.Because the cute twins are now 58. I wouldn't dare wash my face in Ivory

Thanks for so much for posting this! This is great stuff!
Only fifteen minutes long and it held my interest every minute. Soaps can't do the same thing nowadays for me.
This is what I love about the soaps back then. It's contemporary drama done right. Back then, people sat, they talked, and it was good stuff to watch. And the soaps back then actually had respect for the justice system. Plus, soaps knew the difference between drama and science fiction.

@ThorneAstor once soaps expanded beyond 30 minutes, sitting and talking became tedious to watch, so the energy and the interest level' had to be ramped up..the 60 minute (daytime) soap, in hindsight, may have been the beginning of the end..nowadays, seeing those with money and power buy and sell the justice system is the only true reflection of reality left - and its disgusting........
